At this location, the Ohio-West Virginia state line is near the Ohio side of the river. Birds seen on the other side of the Ohio River are in West Virginia. When reporting birds from the Ohio hotspot use multiple incomplete checklists as described below.
Ohio eBird reviewers ask that birders keep precise state and county lists. When you are at a location where you see birds across a state or county line, we ask that you keep two incomplete birding lists, one for each side of the border.
When keeping separate checklists for different sides of a border, please follow these rules:
Located adjacent to the Pioneer Golf Center off Pike Street behind the Lowe’s building, Gunlock Park is a Marietta city property that has been reclaimed and planted with trees through a partnership among RG Properties, the City of Marietta, American Electric Power, the Ohio Division of Forestry and the Natural Resources Conservation Service.
